Tarmac Meditations #74: Nickname

Met the usual suspects, Flash, Merlin and Bigfoot (don’t ask) We call me F-Stop, OldNSlow, OldDude, Shooter. I figure there is so much of me these days that I can use a few names. In fact it seems that there is no consensus on MY nickname. It is a local rule, is it not, that a guy just can’t go around nicknaming himself, can he now?

They ran I walked up 24th towards Agate. They disappear in the fog. I’m giving away 40-60 pounds and 20+ years. It gave me a chance to warm up and then RUN a minute, walk three minutes, then repeat and repeat.-for the first time in a long while there was running on a run for me. 65 miles is a long way away but closer now, way closer.

avatar About Michael Lebowitz

I write and take pictures because it is my way of telling stories. I run because it reminds me, everyday, that I am here. I have no idea where the writing comes from.

What I do know is that I start with what I know and imagine the rest. In the end some of it is true and some of it is made up; memory plus time equals semi-fiction, others call it creative non fiction. And if the “I” in the piece has a different name than mine, it is fiction through and through.

My photography tells a story in a very different way. The pictures seem to come from who I was and what I care about. When the words are coming honestly and the pictures are sharp and knowing, the stories tell me who I am today.

I also write at Running Before Daylight and my photography can be seen at The Long Run Picture Company
